Dave, I really think that hydrodynamically it probably doesn't make much difference between normal tank config (with all the regs, plus the tank cross sectional area contributing to drag) vs an inverted tank config, where the cross sectional area is probably the major contributor to the tanks drag. Again, as you stated, with the hoses run up and securely attached to the tanks, there should be no difference in recovery of a dropped regulator (plus, most tech divers are going to various types of neck straps on the primary second stage specifically to avoid the problem of the dropped second stage.) Take care and safe diving - John
